Kolonne - Die Deutsche Reichsbahn im Dienste der Sowjetunion

The term "Kolonnenwesen" (convoy system) was used to describe the transport of reparations goods by the DR from the Soviet occupation zone to the Soviet Union. In addition to locomotives, tracks, overhead lines and entire industrial plants were transported from what later became the GDR to the Soviet Union.

How these goods got to the USSR, how these transports were organized and under what conditions those affected had to work remained a mystery for a long time.
This book, for which the authors also interviewed contemporary witnesses, offers a comprehensive overview of this important chapter in German railway history.

Reichsbahnausbesserungswerke der DDR - Im Inneren der Bahnbetriebswerke

On the railways, repair shops (in German Ausbesserungswerke, abbreviated Aw) were used to maintain rail vehicles or their components. They specialized in major repairs, general inspections and the reconditioning of replacement parts. In addition, some repair shops also undertook the manufacture of switches, the construction of signal bridges, platform roofs and similar steel structures.

Lothar Weber describes the important role that the Aw of the German Reichsbahn of the GDR played in the maintenance and construction of new vehicles. This is of course only possible on the basis of the historical development, which the author succinctly describes in the introduction.

Reichsbahn-Report - Zwischen Ideologie und Wirklichkeit

During countless visits to archives over the past decades, Erich Preuss (1940-2014) was able to collect and evaluate extensive, previously unknown documents on the subject of the German Reichsbahn of the GDR. The wealth of material found resulted in two volumes of the "Reichsbahn Report".

The renowned railway expert Preuss used his extensive knowledge as a long-time employee of the DR for these works. He began his apprenticeship in the mid-1950s and worked his way up to become a senior employee of a Reichsbahn directorate by 1974.
